Whenever I encounter a vegetable that I don’t love, I become determined to find a way to love it! Cauliflower has been one of those for me. Whether steamed, roasted, mixed with other veggies, mashed on it’s own, as cauliflower rice….it’s just blaah to me. I came across a few recipes that involved mashing cauliflower and sweet potato together. My love of sweet potatoes (and any mashed potato) encouraged me to give it a try. Here’s what I came up with…Greek yogurt is my secret ingredient that pulls this together while keeping things healthy…

Generally, I’m a pretty efficient grocery shopper, buying what we need and using perishable items before they go bad. But, sometimes I get a little over zealous in the produce section and come home with WAY too many fruits and veggies. During squash season, I pretty much need one of every squash variety (dumpling is a favorite). I usually have plans for all the items, but the work week can sabotage cooking time. So, I have a few recipes that help to clean out the fridge and to rescue food from being wasted. Eggplant pizza is one that makes a pretty large batch, perfect for bringing to work for lunch!
